We release different datasets (to be completed) and propose a non-exhaustive list of tasks.

Datasets

• Social-based datasets: Tweet collections about two crisis, respectively the Ebola virus epidemic and the hurricane Sandy. Datasets could be find here.
• Collaborative search logs. Datasets could be find here.

Tools

• Coagmento collaborative interface here.
• Open-source version of Coagmento for doing user-studies on github.

Tasks

Identifying potential collaborators from social-based behaviors (e.g., from Twitter dataset). This general task could be tackled in various ways:

• Given a user X, who would be the best person to collaborate with him based on criteria P and Q?
• Given criteria P and Q, find the most suitable pair(s) to work on topic T.
• For topic T and criteria P and Q, find the most optimal group (size 2-5) from this dataset (sort of minimal spanning tree problem).
• Identifying relevant criteria for identifying collaborators.

Collaborative ranking on social platforms (criteria: federated, novelty, diversity, interactive, time consideration, ...).

Identifying impacting factors on search effectiveness (failure, success, struggling).
